Just a heads up there’s no Thameslink service from Kings X to Sutton next Saturday. It’s looking like a pretty tricky journey getting there and back. Train tickets are booked so I’ll just have to hope for the best

I'm going.  I think your best bet is tube Kings x to London Bridge,  then trains from London Bridge to Sutton are regular.  Takes about an hour in total, plus if you are early, great pubs near London Bridge around Borough Market.

There are plenty of trains from Victoria to Sutton but West Sutton station which is directly outside the ground, appears to be closed that day.

Yes. Engineering  works so West Sutton is closed.
Sutton is served by Thameslink and Southern so you should be able to get trains from Victoria, London Bridge , Blackfriars and maybe St Pancras ((Thameslink).
I don't think I can make it, which is a shame as it's one.of the nearer away days from the south  coast

Cheers for that. It’s looking like Victoria to Sutton and then a bit of a walk to the ground but probably works better for decent pubs anyway

Yeah when I worked on the road one of my Stores was in Sutton, full of shop lifting scrotes before shop lifting became a recognised past time.
